From JRR Tolkien: Return of the King. "But who knows what she spoke to the darkness, alone, in the bitter watches of the night, when all her life seemed shrinking, and the walls of her bower closing in about her, a hutch to trammel some wild thing in?"

Alone Again
Home alone. Well, if I can count books, music and the internet then I guess I am not alone. I do manage to keep myself entertained. As I said yesterday I am very nearly obsessed with Lee Child and his Jack Reacher character. I spent most of the night last night reading up on the forum at his web site. Apparently that wasn't enough because I have spent a great amount of time researching Reacher today. What can I say? It entertains me.
My husband is out running 21 miles with a friend today. Never think poorly of my husband if I complain here (which I have no intention of doing) facts are facts and it takes two to make and break a relationship. Ours is a strange partnership. We have no children. We both say, " I love you" and we seem to get on well enough. He just lives his life with the looking out for number one motto. The inequity there is I have always felt he was number one in my life too. My problem I know, well lets not venture there. Maybe? Is it possible I could be having a mid-life crisis? Hmm...
I can't seem to get enough of Enya's "The Celts" album today. That is another topic I am fascinated with, the history of the Celts and all things concerning Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England. Actually, I just like history. I do believe you really have to know where you've been in order to see where you are going.
I think I'll take a break from reading this afternoon and watch a movie. Maybe Return Of The King. I think Reacher could teach Aragorn a thing or two. There I go obsessing again :-).
Have a great evening. Betty.
